Out of the Linjing Temple.

Qiu Shi'an's attitude towards Jia Cong is different.

In the past, Jia Cong was just a target that Emperor Chengde intended to woo, but with Jia Cong's words, he is now a complete family member, and there is an essential difference between the two.

Therefore, Jia Cong relied on his young age and joked with Qiu Shi'an: "The prime minister is hiding from me so hard!" ”

Qiu Shi'an also smiled, "Our family is here to compensate Lord Jia......

As he spoke, he had to give up his hand.

panicked Jia Cong hurriedly stopped him, and said with a sneer: "It's just a joke, how can the prime minister take it seriously?" Didn't you torture me by doing this?! ”

Qiu Shi'an laughed again.

sent Jia Cong for a while, and when they were about to separate, Qiu Shi'an stopped Jia Cong.

whispered: "The lord should be careful of the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Sun, our family heard that his wife Zhang has a nephew who is on an errand in the Datong army......"

Subsequently, Qiu Shi'an repeated the words of Sun Wende, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.

Jia Cong's brows suddenly furrowed.

can ask Qiu Shi'an to make a special trip to remind him that he is not only an errand boy in the Datong Army, but also surnamed Zhang, Jia Cong doesn't have to think about it, he knows that he is talking about the guerrilla surnamed Zhang who died at his hands.

"Tsk" twice.

Relationships in officialdom are really complicated, and you don't know when you can provoke an enemy.

Fortunately, it is justified, otherwise it would have been a commotion!

…………

The words are divided into two ends.

However, it was said that after Jia Cong was called into the palace by Emperor Chengde, He Dong and He Xi went straight back to Rongguo Mansion to report the news.

Rongguo Mansion.

Knowing that Jia Cong returned to Beijing today, Jia Mu, Jia Yu and others set up a banquet early, and when Jia Cong returned home, they could pass the dishes and pour wine to catch the wind and wash the dust for him.

It's just that everyone didn't wait for Jia Cong, but waited for He Dong and He Xi, who returned home to report the news.

"Brother Cong was summoned into the palace by His Majesty?"

Jia Yu hurriedly asked, "Do you say it's because of something?"

"Because I didn't say anything," He Dong replied, "But I see that the big eunuch is smiling the whole time, and the third master is also happy, which is a good thing!" ”

"Smiling? Tell me exactly what happened! Jia Yu said.

Wait for He Dong to finish.

Jia Yumeng's hands clapped and laughed: "Okay! That's great! ”

"Brother Cong is a competitive person!"

Jia Mu also smiled: "I thought it would be good to get a light car captain, but who would have expected that His Majesty would be awarded a title of entry, in this case, Ming'er's ancestor worship must be more solemn!" ”

Jia Zhen got up and stepped forward and said: "This matter is not for the old lady and the eldest master to bother, it is rare for the family to have another serious title, just hand it over to me and Brother Lian!" ”

Jia Mu smiled and nodded.

…………

Let's talk about Jia Cong.

After bidding farewell to Qiu Shi'an, he went all the way out of the palace gate.

Outside the gates of the Royal Palace.

He Nan and He Bei were waiting there with their horses, and when they saw Jia Cong from a distance, they hurriedly greeted them.

Jia Cong didn't say much.

Only stretched out his hand to take the reins handed over by He Nan, and the three of them beat their horses and went straight to Rongguo Mansion.

I just stepped on the stone road of Ning Rong Street.

Jia Cong saw from a distance that the middle door of Rongguo Mansion was wide open at this time, and Lai Dazheng was leading more than a dozen servants to wait at the door.

Seeing Jia Cong coming back, Lai Da asked the little servants around him to hurry into the mansion to report it, and at the same time hurriedly took the rest of the servants and servants to come forward and salute him.

At the gate, Jia Cong turned over and dismounted.

Reach out and help Lai Da.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Manager Lai, hurry up, you have been an old man in the house for many years, you don't need so many false courtesies with me!" ”

While speaking, He Nan next to him took the reins from Jia Cong's hand and asked the little maid waiting next to him to lead the horse to the stable and settle it, and he went straight to the house with Jia Cong.

Speaking of which, Lai Da is a little weak-hearted.

Previously, the two mansions of Ningrong were in decline, and the masters who had inherited the legacy of their predecessors were all playing with themselves and did not take care of the affairs of the mansion.

So it led to the servants and subordinates of the house, and they were a little eager to try.

Even Lai Da himself often puts on a shelf in front of his young and unfavored master, and some juniors of the Jia family's branches beg to come over for some trivial things, and they want to call him Grandpa Lai!

But that's all in the past!

Now, the Jia family has another master who has been knighted for military merits, which immediately made Lai Da's heart ring the alarm.

When Lai Da was young, the old man was still there, and the big housekeeper in the two mansions was still Lai Da's father.

Since then, Lai Da has often been ordered by his father to explain that in front of the old man, he must be cautious in life and work, and the master who came down on the battlefield is very murderous, and he can't tolerate the little Jiujiu in people's hearts.

If you really find out, it's normal to cut it with a knife!

Later, Lai Da also became the head of Rongguo Mansion, and he was okay at the beginning, he was cautious and did everything in a proper manner.

After a few more years, Lai Da found that the masters of the two mansions of the Jia family were not strict and shrewd people, so his heart gradually drifted.

And so.

How proud he was in the past, how weak Lai Da was at this time.

Every time he thinks of what he has done in the past, Lai Da's heart pounds, and he can't help but be a little more careful when he acts and speaks in front of Jia Cong.

"Why is the middle door open today?"

Seeing that Lai Da actually led him to the middle gate, Jia Cong was curious: "Could it be that there are some distinguished guests who want to come?" ”

To know.

In ancient times, the middle door was not opened, and the host or ordinary guests could only go through the side door or even the corner door on the side.

Just like when Daiyu came, it was the Rongguo Mansion that entered through the corner gate on the west side.

As for the middle door, unless it is a special seasonal festival, or there are distinguished guests at home, the middle door will be opened to show etiquette.

Therefore.

Jia Cong had this question when he saw that the door of Rongguo Mansion was actually open.

Heard Jia Cong's inquiry.

Lai Da, who was respectfully leading the way in front, hurriedly said: "Back to the third master, this is the former He Dong and He Xi who came back to report the news, and the old lady and the eldest master only then knew that the third master had received the emperor's grace and already had a serious title."

The whole house was overjoyed, and the eldest lord immediately ordered the old servant to open the middle door, and led people to welcome the third master at the door to return to the house victoriously! ”

"There is such a rule at home, if you don't say it, I almost forgot it!"

Jia Cong suddenly realized.

Then he asked, "Are the old lady and the eldest old man in Rongxi Hall?" ”

"Yes, Third Master, I've been waiting for a while!"

Jia Cong nodded, "I know, you go over first, tell the old lady and the eldest lord that I will be there after changing my clothes!" ”

"Yes!"

Lai bowed down in response.

Subsequently.

Jia Cong returned to his small courtyard, and under the service of Qingwen and Ruyi, he took off all the heavy robes and armor on his body, changed into a set of light regular clothes, and then took the two big girls to Rongxi Hall.

In the Rongxi Hall.

At this time, it was already full.

Jia's mother was at the top, and Jia Yu was sitting next to her.

The lower hall.

On the left hand side are Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen, on the right hand side are Jia Lian and Jia Rong's uncle and nephew, and below are Baoyu, Jia Huan and other men, as for the other ladies and girls, they are all sitting on the big bed and kang outside the blue yarn cabinet in the east at this time.

Jia Cong was knighted.

For the Jia family at this time, it was really a big thing, and there was nothing else that could be compared, so after learning that Jia Cong had returned to Beijing today, Jia's mother and Jia Yu gathered everyone in Ningrong and Rong's mansions.

Waiting to wash the dust for Jia Cong in the Rongxi Hall......
